Dark Souls II, very much enjoying it the changes are nearly all welcome. That being said, the fact that mobs won't re spawn after 11-15 kills is BS. It'll make grinding for armor parts/weapons/titanite shards very difficult. Hopefully that will get patched out soon.

Otherwise Dark Souls II is an amazing game thus far, fixes all my issues with the first two games.

Dragon Quest IX.
I thought it was gonna be odd using xnamkcor as my name, then they mentioned the World Tree's name and my name seemed a lot more normal and pronounceable.

I just set my pants on fire, set the forest on fire, and cooked the pig.  Totally worth it.

Tales of Symphonia still, just about done, so I'm wrapping up Sidequests and working on getting as many titles as I can.

Ace Attorney Investigations

I love Edgeworth, but I admit I'm mainly playing this so I feel accomplished enough to play AA5.

Dark Souls 2. This game is every bit as amazing as the original.

Use an emulator and rig them back.

I'm playing the PS3 version, that's not an option.

This. Starting my new game+ run, they added new mobs some completely new enemies and a [parasitic bomb] ton of Red Phantoms, invasions are more common now too.

Been reading through my item/weapon/armor/spell descriptions as well as listening to key dialogue while I work on my theory concerning a [spoiler]certain important NPC's relation to a certain primordial human from the Artorias of the Abyss story on Dark Souls 1.[/spoiler] *cough* Connecting the lore and removing fact from propaganda is half the fun of the Soul games.  :D

Talk of Symphonia made me want to pick up DotNW again and actually do Gladsheim, so I'll do that.

Also picked Pokemon X back up.
Still on Tales of the Abyss.

Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze (aiming for all the puzzles pieces before I tackle the last levels.  The temple levels all have been amazing :D!)

after I unlock hard mode, i'll be back to Lords of Shadow 2 for the new game+ on Prince of Darkness difficulty.  And Platinuming it...

As for slow runs, for the heck of taking my time, Witcher 1 and  Bravely Default<3

Nice, looking forward to NG+. I'm at the final dungeon now, the whole game is fantastic. 40 hours of gameplay and I am constantly being amazed and seeing new things. I might stick around before heading to NG+, though, there's a lot of places that I haven't explored yet. :)

Still need to take out three optional bosses on new game+ even if they are harder I'll be at a better level.

-Royal Rat Authority in the Doors of Pharos area; might have to become a ratbro so I can avoid the reverse invasions.

-The Dark Lurker; I ran low on human effigies in my original run so I'll deal with this and finish the pilgrims covenant stuff at the same time. He's a tough boss though; has a similar gimmick to the four kings of new londo from Dark Souls and if you fail you need to spend another effigy and travel through the abyss again fighting black phantom cameos from the original game that are quite dangerous before you get another shot at Dark Lurker.

[spoiler]-King Vendrick, for every giant soul you get you'll decrease his defense I'm told 5 giant souls is the minimum you'll want as he can basically one shot the PC with his attacks even if they are easy to avoid. [/spoiler]

Ancient Dragon-Tried to fight him got owned pretty quickly; I'll need to level my strength so I can use that great shield that 100% blocks fire attacks. I'm told he's basically the game's super boss like Kalameet was in the original.

Finished Symphonia.

Now trying DotNW (Which runs in a silky smooth 60fps, lovely.), and immediately everybody in Luin is a total [dark hold].

Oh boy, its just like Hamil in Xillia. I was so glad when Hamil's population was killed so I guess if Luin gets destroyed again I'll not feel bad.

On the plus side, JYB is easily making this worth it.

Aside from questing in Skyrim, my curiosity of the Genocide series lead me to these games.

[spoiler=vids]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klPgcUNq5yU
Finally got around to emulating PC Engine to play this. Apparently this was one of the games that inspired Guadian Heroes (the other being the Alien VS. Predator beat 'em up). Speaking of which...

Panzer Bandit - PSX - Gameplay
Don't mind me some Guardian Heroes-esque action on the PS1. This is also by the same devs of Mad Stalker and Asuka 120%.[/spoiler]

So DotNW was a rather short game, Emil and Marta die in Luin and the world ends.

How grim.

Nah, they went to luin and some knights went there and killed them.
Only an hour long, shortest retail game i've ever played.

I did, but for all I care that was the end anyway, the controls were so [tornado fang]ing terrible that half the time it wouldn't register button commands. I'm not sure if that was a problem with the original release or not but it was an unwelcome surprise to have such stiff controls.
